Waldo’s was nice. My wife got the chicken fettuccini Alfredo. I had the beef and risotto. My dish was pretty good. My biggest complaint was my risotto was very creamy. Ultimately, it was too heavy to finish but tasty. Also staffing seemed a bit overwhelmed for dinner on a weekday, but nice otherwise. Also the calamari wasn’t my favorite cut and lacked seasoning. The wine selection was also pretty good.

Very mediocre Italian food. Had the happy hour menu and the pizza, meatballs and calamari were frozen section of the grocery store quality. We also stayed at the Marriott and they did not honour the half off happy hour that the vacation club very clearly stated was an associated perk. Wouldn’t have cared it the food quality wasn’t so sub par though. The service staff were all lovely though and the environment was cute.

Dinner with friends. Service all around was great with close attention by the wait staff. Victoria was friendly, helpful and attentive. The others assisting were as good. The food always good. I had the spaghetti carbonara with gluten free penne substituted for the spaghetti. My wife the pescatori and a shrimp scampi. The Waldo’s wedge as good a wedge as any.

We dined at Waldos this evening with the intention of a great meal like a few months ago. This evening our waiter seemed stressed, the kitchen was said to be backed up, and our entrees took forever to arrive after our waiter assured us our food would be out shortly. The bread service was wonderful while we waited. Our entrees finally arrived. Mine was linguine rustica made gluten free with penne which was very undercooked and chewy. The chicken and sausage were not warm. My husband’s entree was shrimp scampi with carrots and broccolini. There was maybe a 3 inch wide pile of pasta with his shrimp separate and the vegetables were too raw to cut with his table knife. Our waiter did not come back to check that our entrees were satisfactory. Another table next to us had similar food issues and sent theirs back. Waldos failed us this time! We took most of our entrees home to further complete the cooking at home.

We are lucky enough to have another amazing Italian restaurant in our neighborhood and this one was very special. Our server Nara provided great service throughout the meal and other staff members were just as attentive. Loved having a little cheese bowl to nibble on while you’re dining. My wife had a cocktail called ruby red martini which she enjoyed well enough to have another. We had the bruschetta for an appetizer which I would highly recommend. I had the lasagna and my wife had the short rib stuffed ravioli. Both meals were very filling and quite tasty. We were unable to try out the desserts due to being full, but they look great. Update: last night we went for our anniversary and tried some different dishes which were fantastic. As always, you are great my friendly staff and the servers take care of you very well. My wife and I enjoy this restaurant quite a bit and it should be a must stop for you to try too.

Exceeded our expectations
I think we just found our new “most favorite restaurant”!
Our dining experaince exceeded our expectations. Ambiance was probably the most comfortable and inviting that we’ve experienced here in the valley. Very attentive friendly knowledgeable staff.
Food was fresh, cooked to perfection and delicious. Great wines, and the deserts were all perfect. Prices are fair.
I could not get over how at home we felt. The design and abidance was amazing and we felt so relaxed.
We will certainly be back!

Great meal at Waldo’s and served by Freda only to be negated by the manager’s horrible customer service at the end. We frequent The Sandbar, Back Street Bistro, and Waldo’s. The Manager’s behavior ruined our experience(s). Never been treated so rudely on a Saturday night at 9PM. Sad!

This place was awesome. The food was absolutely fantastic, the bartender Charlie was really cool and a Dallas cowboy fan. Our server Victor did an awesome job. I recommend getting the meatballs no sauce they were definitely the top five I’ve ever had. Definitely splurge and get the trio of desserts with a cannoli, lava cake and tiramisu. The tiramisu is about the best I’ve ever had. This is also a great spot for happy our and can’t wait to go back
